The start of a new ink drawing series: “Windup Dolls.” Inspired by one of Iran’s first feminist voices, Forough Farrokhzad (1935-67) and her poem “The Windup Doll” (1959): “...Exactly like a windup doll, one can see one’s own world with two glass eyes. One can sleep for years in a felt-lined box on lace and tinsel. In response to every obscene squeeze of a hand, one can exclaim without reason: ‘Oh, I’m so happy!’” #foroughfarrokhzad#aphroditenavab#airgallery
